100 Horror Movies in 92 Days


Spooky Sarah’s annual horror movie challenge, the #100HorrorMoviesIn92Days challenge is back like a horror movie sequel. Born out of boredom during the lockdown phase of COVID, the challenge has grown exponentially and is an annual tradition among participants. It encourages folks to set aside watching only their comfort watches during spooky season and find new favorites from films they haven’t seen before. In addition to hosting a Discord server for chatting and giveaway opportunities, there are watch parties as schedules permit.

The guidelines for this challenge are as follows:

  • The challenge runs from August 1st through October 31st.

  • The goal is to watch at least 100 horror movies in this time period.

  • The films must be new to you. In other words, you have never seen it.

  • Films must be at least 45 minutes to count.

  • Films must be classified as horror by either Letterboxd or IMDb.

o   Exceptions will be made for gateway horror films (ie: Hocus Pocus, The Haunted Mansion, etc) and documentaries about horror movies.

While tv shows do not count for the challenge, films from series like Masters of Horror and Hulu’s Into the Dark are considered feature-length films and will count.

This challenge isn’t a dictatorship, if a good case can be made for a film that doesn’t fall under the horror category, it can be brought to the server and discussed among participants for a majority ruling. There is a Letterboxd list for movies that have been approved of by the group.

There is no limit to how many films must be watched per day or week, only that you should have at least 100 by the end of the challenge.
